Greetings Blogosphere! Did you miss me? Well I am somewhat confident that you didn’t but if by some chance you did, Please find finally my “better late than never” entry to The Retiree Diary. I have not posted anything for some time now except my review of an excellent Willie Nelson Biography a couple of weeks ago. The last little while I have felt bad about not writing anything and trying to figure out why that might be? Available time is not a great excuse because if I was really ready to put notes to paper I could have made time. Topics? Again, not a great excuse because sometimes I think I have too much to share or say. The only thing I can fall back on is I have felt a bit de-(Word)pressed…..
Huh? I just heard some of you saying that…… others, I heard laughing (ok mildly chuckling) at my play on words. I think most of you have experienced this at one time or another … that overwhelming feeling of having lots to say but not sure how to express it or put it down in words. The only definition I can come up with for feeling de-(Word)pressed is this: An overwhelming sense of loss contributing to a feeling of defect or weakness, mental/writers block, that over time contributes to a lack of motivation to post. 🙂 Now of course, for something like this, there has to be a cure. YES! Write, write, write, write and express yourself. Sounds like a plan. I just need to get down to it and write. What is on my mind, what I am thinking about and what I am doing. STUFF! There is lots of it floating around in my head.
If I look now at my blog page, I have six draft posts with great catchy titles but no guts yet. Titles, tags, categories, and in some cases pictures and featured images. I just need to take the time, give things some thought and get it down on electronic paper. So it is with renewed vigour and interest that I tackle some of these leftovers in limbo. Get in and get them done…..
Cheers!
The Retiree Diary
